Solving the Texas Rangers’ third base issue: Closing thoughts

The Texas Rangers might be in a great spot regarding third base in the future.

With Josh Jung, Davis Wendzel and others waiting in the minor leagues, the Rangers will have a surplus of quality bats coming very soon.

However, that’s down the road, and the the team has baseball games to play in 2021. Ideally, Texas would like to find a decent option to fill their third base vacancy.

For now, we can assume that Jung will take the reigns sometime this coming season.

Until then, Culberson or someone else will have to keep that hot corner seat warm.

Whether that player comes from within the organization or outside it, the bridge to gap until Josh Jung’s highly anticipated debut will need to be built.
